Political Fuckery In North Carolina


It is my want in this space to pontificate on whatever goddam political fuckery is going on at any goddam minute in Washington caused by Donald Trump or any of his snivelling syncophants who enable his bullshit. 

But there is political fuckery of a more local nature going right here in North Carolina.

First of all, it should be noted the Republican led state legislature has yet to pass the state budget many, many weeks after the deadline to do so.

Which has fucked up a lot of urgent priorities throughout the state such as funding public school systems throughout the state.

Well, the Republicans called the legislature back into session to deal with some extremely urgent pressing business.

Such as passing the state budget?

Oh fuck that shit! They had something more important to deal with.

Making that goddam motherfucker Donald Trump happy.

The state house passed a new congressional map that shifts the state's major battleground Democratic-held House district and makes it more favorable to conservatives.  The redrawn map will put 11 Republicans in the U.S. House of Represenatives instead of the 10 that are there now.

Senate leader Phil Berger had this justification for fucking with the state voting map: “It is something that is an appropriate thing for us to do under the law and in conjunction with basically listening to the will of the people."

The will of the people, he says.  Yeah, Donald Trump has won North Carolina's Electoral College vote for 3 elections in a row. But it should be noted in 2024 that he only won popular vote in the state by 51%.   

What about the will of those people who made up the other 49%? They didn't win so they don't count. So fuck them and whatever their will might be.

Or what about those in the 51% who are might be realizing that Donald Trump is going to do fuck all about the price of groceries and might be re-thinking their vote?  Well, fuck them too! 

And what about the will of the people who want the legislature to pass their goddam budget and fund our schools already?

Sorry, no time for that today and did they mention, fuck you?
